Ancient Eden - Chapter 116
Chapter 116
(36.3)
Li Mang gripped her tighter, and used even more force, before flipping her over once again.
The setting sun had quietly lost its glow, and the twilight was sinking.
A last deep, low growl escaped from his throat, and he finally fell on top of her and stilled.
Mu Qing didn’t say anything, and just closed her eyes, silently counting the beats of his heart, one by one, feeling the soreness of her whole body after the extreme pleasure of having just been tossed and turned.
He was too heavy, and once he lied down on top of her, she felt a little breathless.
She poked him in the back, trying to get him to move away.
Some object suddenly hit the top of her head, and she felt a slight pain. Twisting her head to see the source of the foreign object, her jaw dropped in shock.
On the high trees by the water pool, it was unsure at what point in time, but some dozen or so monkeys had appeared, some hanging upside down on the branches, some sitting, but their more than a dozen pairs of round eyes were all without exception looking at them. The object that hit her just now was a fruit that the monkeys had dropped from the tree, presumably feeling a little displeased that they had stopped.
Mu Qing screamed and pushed Li Mang away with force.
Li Mang looked up and then also noticed the peepers in the tree as well.
What made Mu Qing feel depressed was that not only did he not help her, but he started laughing out loud as if he found it funny.
She was both angry and ashamed.
Of course, monkeys were certainly not human, but in any case, all the things that she and he just did now were actually witnessed by these dozen pairs of eyes that weren’t so different from human’s eyes. She felt that her face was turning so red it was going to start dripping blood, she hit Li Mang a few times randomly to vent her anger, and then grabbed in a flurry the clothes that he had taken off before.
Li Mang could not bear to see her in such an embarrassed state, so he forced himself to hold back his laughter, picked a stone and threw it at the monkeys in the trees, wanting to chase them away. Who knew this action would annoy the spectators who were originally watching the show with interest so much ? The scene turned into a chaotic mess of squeaking sounds, and wild fruits like rain started to fly towards the two of them. The two of them couldn’t avoid it, nor defend against it, and could just pick up their clothes, cover their heads and scamper off like frightened rats.
When they finally managed to escape from that group of uninvited guests, Mu Qing saw that Li Mang had actually managed to catch a few wild fruits in his hands during the confusion, saying those would be the side dishes for this evening meal. Thinking about the ridiculous scene just now, she could not hold back her laughter and, the more she thought about it, the more funny it was. In the end, she almost fell limp on the ground from the laugh, and the helpless Li Mang had to carry her back to their cave house.

When they reached the entrance of the cave, Mu Qing smelled the smell a charred smell as if something had been burnt. At this time, it was like she snapped awake from a dream. She shrieked, loosened her hand that was hanging on Li Mang’s neck and jumped down from his body, running inside barefoot in a panic.
The light in the outer cave was already dim. Li Mang lit a torch made of resin and fixed it in a crack in the cave wall. The inside of the cave was instantly illuminated.
The roasted meat on the fire had become charred black on the side facing the fire, and the roasted fish that she had wrapped in leaves and put on one side of the stone table had been opened. Only one fish was left inside, and the remaining three had disappeared.
Mu Qing heard a suspicious smacking sound, seemingly coming from behind the stone table, and when she stretched her head forward to take a look, she saw Xiao Hei, pressing down on the fish with his front paws while licking it with great gusto. When it heard the sound of her movements and raised its head, seeing that it was Mu Qing, Xiao Hei immediately held down the leftover roasted fish to protect it, as if it was afraid that she would come to snatch it.
